Summary / Abstract:

LTStraipsnyje pristatoma Karo mokslų draugijos Istorijos sekcijos veikla, užčiuopiant ir šios organizacijos ištakas – Karo mokslų kūrėjų draugijos trumpalaikę ir fragmentuotai žinomą veiklą. Nagrinėjama karo istorijos tyrimus tarpukariu pradėjusių vykdyti asmenų, jau priklausiusių draugijai, veikla. Identifikuojami asmenys, veikę (Karo) istorijos sekcijoje, įvardijami jų akademiniai interesai ir galimos veiklos kryptys bei pasiekimai. Kartu atskleidžiamas Karo mokslų draugijos bei Istorijos sekcijos veiklos sąstingis po maždaug penkerių metų nuo įkūrimo ir pagaliau vegetacija, užtrukusi panašiai, kai organizacija faktiškai nustojo veikti, buvo įtraukta į Lietuvos karininkų ramovės sudėtį.

ENThe article presents the activities of the History Section of the Society of Military Sciences by also looking back at the predecessor of this organization – short-lived Society of the Founders of Military Sciences and some fragmentary information about its functioning. It addresses the activities of the individuals who initiated the research in military history during the interwar period under the umbrella of the society. The persons who took an active part in the (Military) History Section are identified; their academic interests and potential research fields are discussed in the article. The aim of this article is to analyze the establishment of the Society of Military Sciences and the activities of the History Section that functioned as its constituent part by applying analysis, synthesis and descriptive methods. The chronological limits of the research cover the period of 1921–1933, i.e. from the establishment of the Society of the Founders of Military Sciences to the liquidation of the Society of Military Sciences by incorporating it into the Lithuanian Officers’ Club. The research revealed that World War I and the Lithuanian Wars of Independence that followed it evoked public interest in the war and military history. The creation of the national army triggered that interest to an even greater extent. After all, the army became the implementer and user of the research in military history in practice.In the 1920s several periods of military history can be singled out in the Lithuanian army: 1) the organization of institutions (organizations) engaged in the research in military history until 1923; 2) the intensification of the research in military history after the establishment of the Society of Military Sciences and the start of publication of the specialized journal Karo archyvas (The Archive of War) in the period 1923–1926; 3) the decline and vegetation of the activities of the Society of Military Sciences as well as the research in military history from 1927. During the period in question the research in military history was at first carried out in a rather decentralized manner in the army, i.e. each military unit or army type took interest in its “own past”, collected material, gave lectures and even published certain works in military periodicals or individual publications. Nevertheless, at the same time foundations were laid for the further development of the research in military history, which was implemented by the specialized Military History Unit founded in the army staff in the 1930s.
